Homestay is located 5-6 kms inside the main road right in the middle of a forest where you cab have your own private moments. Owner Jeevan and his cousin are friendly and responsive while there helper Deekshith is superman who will take care of all your needs. Given it is a smaller homestay, they have many recreation options like shooting, archery, carom, dart boards etc. along with drive to a nearby waterfall and coffee/pepper estate tour etc. Food is homely and meets the requirement; do not expect fancy or large spreads.

The only warning to fellow travelers is, the last 500 meters of the drive to homestay is rough and not suitable for small cars and low ground clearance sedans.One of our guests wrote a review on TripAdvisor, Thank you Agrabhay.

It was my first personal homestay experience (earlier one was an internal company outing) with my family, my parents and mother in law. it was a truly memorable experience. Was in fact confused on which to choose as had shortlisted two in chikmagalur for our holiday and Jeevan calling me regularly and being responsive clinched in in their favors and am happy for it. We were a group of 8 in all and took both the rooms in the house which is situated bang in the middle of a large, lush coffee plantation. Jeevan, Nuthan and Dikshith all are very helpful and go all out to make the guests stay comfortable and enjoyable. Jeevan was not there for the last day but spent time sharing stories, taking us through a coffee plantation tour and was good company generally around. Nuthan knows the place in and out and my daughter and son simply loved jeep rides he took us through practically no roads. the falls he took us to was a delight as we were the only ones there the time we were there and we actually sat under the gushing stream for hours. Am not mentioning the name lest it become touristy. dikshith is energetic and the man Friday running around getting things. He took us on the morning trek to the hill which was good but the only thing he does not do is explain which would be good. The food was prepared by their mom single handedly since their cook was on leave and we all simply loved it. they did not cut any corners and when we asked to pack some rice for the children they did so without a fuss while still serving us a full lunch. last day they again packed rice for us though it was not part of the package. we all did quite a bit of archery, darting and bit of rifle shooting which is available onsite. But remember the place is fairly interior and it takes 8 kms from the bannur road junction to this place and the road is fairly bumpy in the last 2-3 kms. The rooms are clean, neat and very comfortable but are not fancy or luxurious. it is a nice secluded place that allows you to experience nature and the activities. it is not a property where you boast staying of. Like I was telling my wife the only problem with this place will be the nice team behind getting greedy and adding more rooms which makes their current personal care difficult or them increasing the prices because of the good reviews which then becomes a factor. if they keep both in mind, it is simply a great option to chill out. Mobile signals are weak there and couples don’t have any. so in a way you can get away from it all.One of our guests wrote a review on TripAdvisor, Thank you Xavier.

Right in the middle of the forest a very peaceful place with good service and some exciting activities like archery and rifle shooting. Food was malnad style, different but good. Great as a get away from the city.One of our guests review on TripAdvisor, Thank you Sukriti.

We stayed as a couple at Forest Homestay and Adventure Sports for 2 nights and it was one of the most beautiful places we have seen in Chikmagalur. The activities are really amazing and I never enjoyed better service in my life. Absolutely amazing highly recommended!One of our guests wrote a review on TripAdvisor, Thank you Chethan.
